Extreme typing challenge pits iPhone vs. netbook

When I saw this video I knew that I had to post it. I hear some people lament the fact that the iPhone doesn’t have a hard keyboard on it. To me, the virtual keyboard was a huge selling point (primarily because I hate typing on hard, sharp, and tiny keys) and this video shows why it is better for a mobile device.

Our challenge was pretty simple: hop into the passenger seat alongside 14-time European Rallycross champion Kenneth Hansen, hurtle around Lydden racetrack in Dover, England, and attempt to type, “The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog”–a pangram, or holoalphabetic sentence containing every letter of the alphabet–onto each device.
